The performance of the similarity puncturing strategy is evaluated for different transmitting power and arrival rate, i.e., \(\lambda =7\)  and \(\lambda =3.5\)  packets per millisecond (p/msec). we assume that the eMBB users are unaware of the punctured resources, so we consider the code-based puncturing proposed in [1]}, [2]} as a baseline algorithm. Generally, when the eMBB receiver is unaware of the punctured resources of the transmission, the received signal is decoded as useful signal. Resource proportional (RP) placement is used to allocate the URLLC traffic as it gives the optimal solution for the linear loss model [3]}.
